DOG / Living Art *
_public interventions (films)
* Living Art is a common project of Steven Cohen and Elu Kieser which consists of a series of provocative public interventions in which they use their bodies (and sometimes those of others) to create a “living art” which mixes sculpture, dance and cross-dressing . These pieces include DOG, FAGGOT, JEW and UGLY GIRL.
” I wanted to bring home the point through humour and pathos that what we do in life is often not what we want, but what we are trained for. And we compound that by going to enormous lengths to impress as if we are dogs on show. “
Steven Cohen
